ABSTRACT
This chapter does two main things by way of discussing contextualism about belief ascriptions: on one hand, I will survey a range of different accounts of belief recently defended in print; on the other, I will sketch some ways of arguing for contextualism about belief ascriptions. Most of the accounts of belief I’ll survey do not entail b-contextualism, 1 but instead take belief to be situation-sensitive in one or another way. One of the lines of argument I’ll sketch, then, aims to motivate b-contextualism by appeal to belief’s situation sensitivity.
